I wonder if any players are involved (Okafor, Cov, Saric).

I hate that the Sixers have a non former player as the top mind in the front office.

I bet BC gives up three firsts, or at least two outright and one swap.

Awesome. We will trade up, and I predict massively overpay, for a guy who would've been there at pick 3 anyway... and might be the 3-5 best player in the draft.

exacly.
IT will be 3 first rounds for sure, but we should do it.

all I have left is to hope this is another "WTF ARE YOU DOING BRYAN? YOU SNAKE ASS SNAK!! I KNEW NOTHING GOOD WOULD COME FROM YOU CITY SLICKERS AND YOUR STUPID IDEAS. REEEEEEEEE" type outrage only for it to actually not be that bad like all of the moves he has made so far.

but I am expecting future morgaging like never seen before...and then the Lakers will implode and get the 1st pick, followed by the Kings also getting the first pick because Vivek decided to play the point himself....and for the Celtics to get two HOF back to back and destroy us every season for the next 10 years. 30 for 30 in coming. "what if I told you, one man decided to destroy everything".

but the sociopath in me, will enjoy the insanity of this whole situation lol.

Three firsts to go from #3 to #1 makes more sense historically for the team trading down than the low ball #3 for #5 &#10 some people were suggesting the Sixers should do.

the lakers pick is gone 100%.

I just hate that they have someone who is not very smart.

I went into the lottery thinking, as long as Boston doesn't get Josh Jackson I'll be fine. Now not only do they get him, but they get one of our picks for their trouble... Un-be-lievable.

I'd be very glad if Bryan trades #3 + LAL pick + Okafor + 2nd rounders for Fultz.
To me, Fultz is the best player in the draft and the best fit for our team. Enough of collecting assets. We will have three stars in Embiid, Simmons, Fultz to build around.

Embiid/Holmes
Simmons/Saric
Covington/Saric
?/TLC
Fultz/Bayless/TJ

We are one SG away from being great with a ton of assets and cap space.

Yep, perfect fit. The guy doesn't have to feel the burden of having to carry the team (Embiid and Simmons) and just need to do what he does best, and that is score points and spread the floor. Woot Woot.

If we're only including one pick then it's probably the LA pick. I hope Colangelo can at least add a top 3 protection to it.

The scary part is that the trade might be contingent on the 76ers medical staff saying his knee is OK.
